I have post-holiday-too-much-time-with-the-kids-blues. It borders on depression at this point. What I really want to do is whine and whine and whine and cry about how tired I am, how sad I am and how I just need to get back to work. It's been done though. I've boohoo'd to everyone who will even look at me and that's that. I'm just going to have to work through this on my own, right? like people do.

Last night I went to Amy and Tyler's house for dinner and wine and it was such an awesome break. The turd child known as Max had to go with me because he's such a clingy kid that he can't let me leave him for even 2 or 3 hours. He finally came around and stopped whining in time for me to enjoy the company of adults and it was really nice to eat and drink and laugh with my friends. The only downer of that was Dan getting rear-ended (and not in a good way. har har) on 95 on the way home.

Today's Trevor's birthday. He's going to celebrate by going to dinner w/ my folks and then Saturday he and a friend are going to the movies. He always gets screwed over on his birthday because we're so exhausted from the holidays. He takes it well though and I've tried to make today special for him by only nagging him a little and by making him a cake with the kitchenaid mixer that I got for Christmas from Jake. I love my kids...all of them, even though I complain way too much about them.

Tomorrow night we're going to Becks and Aaron's house for New Year's Eve. It's going to be so nice to take the kids to mom and dad's house and go out. Plus we'll get to meet Jamie and Ashley's new baby, Phoebe. PLUS Tree's coming down and I miss her so. I plan on ringing in the new year with a new attitude and hopefully it'll stick. Good intentions are half the battle.

but for now....bleh.

You don't have all the grandparents a family is allowed around so you can have more alone time.

(try being in a strange country, don't know anyone,kids aren't in school, don't have a job, husband has to sleep during the day and you don't really drink and can't afford it anyway.)
